U Hägg et al. Swed Dent J. 1991.

Abstract

The timing and interrelationships between stages of secondary sex characters and the pubertal maximum of growth were studied in a prospective longitudinal study of 90 Swedish girls, followed from birth to adulthood. The results show that there is a close correlation between some of the stages of secondary sex characters and the pubertal maximum of growth in girls.
